About Fries, from BoardGameGeek:

Fries is a 3-4 player climbing-shedding game where the goal is to be either the first player to shed out, or the last player with cards still in hand! Those caught in the middle will lose a precious fry. During each trick, players must play a meld if they have one that beats the previous meld, and the first player who cannot beat a previous meld is then given the choice to create a bomb, giving each round its own special flavor. In addition, each player's chosen wild card inverts the ranking of the cards, making it harder and harder to shed out - or stay in! Players who achieve one of the two special feats (winning every trick as they shed out 1st, or winning NO tricks as they become last in) double the penalties for their opponents.
